Middle Britons to forgo holiday abroad
Activer le mode zenJill Insley
"More than one in four middle-class families intend giving up their holiday this year because of increasing financial pressures, according to research by Experian.
"The survey of 2,000 people found that 28% of middle Britons - by age and by wealth - throughout the UK will forgo a holiday altogether, while this figure rose to 38% of those questioned in the south-east. Overall, of those still planning a holiday, 28% will stay in Britain.
"Experian found that those still planning to travel abroad were nevertheless intending to cut back on spending, with 24% saying they would take packed lunches rather than eat out, 42% saying they would go on fewer excursions, and 29% saying they wouldn't buy souvenirs. A further 12% will cut costs by camping rather than staying in hotels."
